The benefit of integration with the advantage of standard CMOS

To support direct car battery connection and to withstand 40V transient, load dump conditions, most of our automotive ICs are built on a CMOS process technology developed specifically for automotive applications: FTSMC35HV.

Jointly developed by Dialog, Bosch and TSMC, FTSMC35HV is based on a commercial grade 0.35µ technology, to which is added a high voltage extension which offers 40V n-channel and 20V and 40V p-channel extended drain MOS transistors.

To meet the need for both 40V handling and non-volatile memory, process modifications in the embedded flash IP also extends its operational temperature range and dramatically improves endurance. Embedded Flash uses split gate cell design and a thick gate oxide and integrates forward error correction.

Process available for at least 10 years, our FTSMC35HV process is qualified for use over the temperature range –40ºC to +150ºC (AEC Q100 Grade 0) and has passed the Bosch automotive qualification (<0.5ppm program).
